If you bought the kindle expecting books at sub $10 it seems like we've been jipped.
I don't feel gypped. Amazon never promised all books would be $9.99 Here is what they said.

"Whether you prefer biographies, classics, investment guides, thrillers, or sci-fi, thousands of your favorite books are available, including 103 of 110 books currently found on the New York Times® Best Seller list. New York Times Best Sellers and most new releases are $9.99, and you'll find many books for less."



Once they fall off the best seller list, or never make it there, all bets are off.
